Queen Camilla had a lovely time meeting Paddington Bear yesterday at Windsor Castle. Her Majesty welcomed the beloved bear, who wore his famous blue coat and red hat, to Windsor Castle on Wednesday to attend a reception with finalists, judges and celebrity readers to celebrate the final of the BBC’s creative writing competition 500 Words.
The bear had performed at the Grand Final of BBC 500 Words, the country’s most celebrated children’s writing competition, and was one of a number of guests at Windsor Castle for the reception. He attended alongside Doctor Who actress Jodie Whittaker, Gavin and Stacey star Joanna Page, and TV presenters Bradley and Barney Walsh.

At the event, which celebrates talented young writers from all across the UK, Camilla seemed delighted to meet Paddington Bear. The meeting between Her Majesty and the Peruvian bear took place in the Grand Reception Room. After bending down to speak to Paddington, she said: “Thank you very much for coming all the way from Peru, it’s very kind of you. And you’re going to give all your marmalade sandwiches to all these children, and perhaps I can have one too, thank you very much.”
